    She is a dream to sail, points high and is FAST. Sailed mostly with just 110% genoa at an average of 5-6 knots in 10-15 knots of wind. We've seen 8 knots more than once.

    The engine has served us very well but some work should be done on the transmission and raw water pump.

    We spent the last three years rebuilding the boat and preparing her for extensive offshore cruising. There are things unfinished that need to be done for aesthics but they don't affect her cruising capabilities. We rebuilt her to be strong and functional, planning on finishing the cosmetics during our cruising.

    There is so much more than I could list here. Please contact and my husband can answer more questions. He has built and rebuilt many boats and has an extensive 30 year background in construction. We can email you more pictures and information. We are honest people and want to find someone who'll love her as much as we have.

    I'm sorry David... Would you please unlist our boat?... My husband has changed his mind and doesn't want to sell it now that we found somone who wants to buy it...
    SO sorry :(
